Three Kingdoms: The rebellion was eavesdropped by Cao Cao

Chapter 826 Blank Book

When Sima Zhao heard Xun Yu's approval, he immediately smiled:

"Lord Xun, don't be so nervous. We won't let you do anything outrageous. Now you just need to stay here and take care of your health. Don't show your face outside, so as not to be detected by Cao Cao's secret sentry!"

But Xun Yu refused to let go and said:
"If you don't make it clear, I will never stay here. I, Xun Yu, never do muddle-headed things. If you want me to help you, then make the conditions clear!"

Hearing this, Sima Zhao looked at Xun Yu quietly, then found a place to sit down, and said calmly:
"Master Xun, do you want to help the Han family?"

After hearing this, Xun Yu sneered, "So what if you want to? So what if you don't want to? If you want me to use Liu Bei's method and use the excuse of supporting the Han Dynasty to plot the world, then you have misunderstood me, Xun Yu. I am a Hanchen, but I don’t bother to join forces with him, otherwise, wouldn’t it be enough for me to rely on him back then? Why did I go to Cao Cao?”

"Oh?"

After hearing this, Sima Zhao asked with great interest, "Then dare to ask Mr. Xun, can you tell me the reason why you took refuge in Cao Cao?"

Xun Yu sneered again, although his expression showed impatience, he still took a deep breath and said:
"In the past few decades, there have been more and more moths in the Han Dynasty. Liu Bei said that he wanted to help the Han Dynasty, but it was nothing more than an excuse. Even if he could really help the Han Dynasty, it would be useless. But Cao Cao is different. The Han Dynasty needs someone like him to overthrow those corrupt moths!"

Sima Zhao rubbed his chin after hearing this, thought for a while, then smiled and said:

"But you underestimated Cao Cao's ambition. You think that even if he doesn't obey the rules, he won't become king on his own, right?"

Xun Yu acquiesced, then sighed, and shook his head with a self-deprecating smile, "Cao Cao is no longer the high-spirited lord he once was, but a real king. How can you be willing to be a courtier?"

"It's me who underestimated people's hearts!"

Sima Zhao shook his head, "It's not that Mr. Xun underestimated people's hearts, but that you trust the Cao family too much!"

Xun Yu glanced at him, then said:

"The Cao family, there are exceptions!"

Sima Zhao was slightly taken aback, "Are you talking about Cao Su?"

Xun Yu nodded, "I underestimated Cao Cao, but at least I can see through him and know what he wants. However, I really can't see through his younger brother Cao Su at all, and I don't know him at all. What are you thinking!"

Sima Zhao was puzzled, "Why did you say that?"

Seeing that Xun Yu had already reached this point, he didn't set up any more defenses. He sat on the bed and took a sip of water, and continued to speak eloquently:

"I've been with Cao Cao for so many years. Over the years, I know his every move, but there is only one thing that I really don't understand, and I have never noticed it, and that is how is the connection between him and Cao Su? "

After Sima Zhao heard this, the doubts on his face deepened!

"Isn't it a letter? Or is it a message?"

"neither!"

Xun Yu shook his head and said, "When Cao Su was still by Cao Cao's side, they could communicate with just one look. Taking a step back, I can still figure it out. After all, they are brothers, and there is still a tacit understanding for many years! "

"But after Cao Su left Xuchang, the things the two brothers did were still so similar, as if they had been discussed in advance. This is a bit unbelievable!"

Hearing this, Sima Zhao also fell into deep thought, and asked tentatively after a while:
"Could it be that they have a secret connection? Or some kind of coded letter?"

Xun Yu shook his head again, "No, when I helped Cao Cao tidy up his study, I never saw any strange letters or code words, so I feel very..."

Halfway through the conversation, he stopped abruptly!

"What's the matter, Master Xun?" Sima Zhao couldn't help asking when he saw that he was suddenly frozen in place.

"Speaking of strangeness, there is indeed a black book that I find very strange!"

Xun Yu recalled something carefully, and said with a frown.

"Black books?"

Sima Zhao asked suspiciously, "What is that?"

"do not know!"

Xun Yu shook his head, "I opened it and looked, and it was all blank, even if it was roasted with fire or wiped with water, the words could not emerge. The strangest thing is that there is no trace of imprint on the book. , but sometimes when I came to look for Cao Cao, he was flipping through it, and when he saw me, he immediately put it away, as if he didn't want me to find anything!"

"So I deliberately read this book, but I didn't see anything!"

Sima Zhao's face was full of astonishment when he heard it, and for a moment he thought that Xun Yu was joking!

A blank book?No marks at all?

Cao Cao is still hiding it?

If he hadn't learned about this from Xun Yu, he must have felt that the other party was playing tricks on him!

It's so weird, isn't it?
"Master Xun, are you serious?"

Seeing that he didn't believe him, Xun Yu said helplessly:

"Although this matter did not cause any disturbance, I have always kept it in my heart and never told anyone about it. If Cao Cao really communicated with Cao Su in this way, then I really can't figure out how they did it!"

"Perhaps... with Cao Su's talent, maybe he can really do such a thing!"

Sima Zhao didn't know what to say when he heard this!
What Xun Yu said was too unbelievable, he had to report it to his father!
Then he got up slowly, cupped his hands to Xun Yu and said:

"Master Xun, thank you for your information, and I hope we can cooperate happily in the future!"

Xun Yu glanced at him, but didn't say anything more!
He knew better than anyone else that he had already got involved with the Sima family, and he couldn't avoid it from now on!
Besides... he is a dead person outside now, even if he goes out now, what kind of identity should he continue to live in?
He doesn't know!

But one thing is certain, there are some things that he can no longer allow himself to decide!

Thinking of this, Xun Yu suddenly asked when Sima Zhao was about to leave:
"Are you...are you trying to overthrow Cao Cao's rule?"

Sima Zhao stopped, turned to look at Xun Yu, and said with a half-smile:
"Master Xun, what are you talking about? We... just want to survive. In such a troubled world, if even the family cannot survive, then who else can survive, right?"

Listening to his answer, Xun Yu seemed to have sensed their purpose, he didn't say anything, but fell silent!
Sima Zhao smiled, said no more, turned and left the room!
After he left, Xun Yu stared blankly and sighed deeply!
"Cao Su...what are you plotting with Cao Cao?"
